Watch as Eli Manning accidentally gives double middle fingers during Monday Night Football broadcast (Video)

Watch as Eli Manning accidentally gives double middle fingers during Monday Night Football broadcast (Video).

Eli Manning is definitely making it hard for people to hate him with all of the internet gold he provides each broadcast of Monday Night Football.

While he and his brother, Hall of Famer Peyton Manning, were doing their commentary for the game between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles, Eli Manning was discussing with Chris Long how he was treated by the fans in Philadelphia and that included a double bird salute.

Whether that was supposed to make it on national television or not remains to be seen. But once it’s on television and especially the internet, it’s out there forever. And the fans saw it, loved it and reacted as we all expected.

Eli Manning. Future Hall of Famer. National treasure on TV.
